WinForms Grid - Updates Coming to the XtraGrid Suite

     

With DXperience v2009 vol 2, we're extending the data shaping options available to your end-users.

When data is grouped against a date-time field, you can now use the grouping column's context menu to change group interval. Choices include: yearly, monthly or Outlook style grouping...

WinForms Grid Group Interval

The same menu also allows you to invoke a dialog specifying group summaries for a column.

WinForms Grid Group Summary Editor

Once group summaries have been specified, you can sort group rows by summary values. This is done via the same context menu.

I second Neal's query.

These new enhancement really break the 'Excel feature' barrier and provide much more control for power users.

I'm loving it!

I have already developed some similar functionality as described in this post, but I like more your "native" and complete solution

Thank you

What skin is being used in the lower picture (very light grey grid)?  I don't see a skin in 2009 vol 1 matching it.

Thanks,

Corey

The already sophisticated Xtragrid is getting so much functionality that in the next release, I am expecting it to make freshly ground coffee. Anything less would make me a unhappy user!!!

How about allowing us to programmatically set which group levels should have group summary footers?

Right now if I group by column A and within that I group by column B, and I switch on group level summaries it always displays those for both A and B, but often I would want it only for A.

Since you are modifying this code anyway, can you please add this functionality?

We're just about to release v2009.2 and it would be a good idea to have an "accumulator"
